Inman- War in Moxtaxa. Our worst
fears have been nalized in regard to Mon
tana. A terrible Indian war is now raging
in that Territory. The papers from there
are Ailed with. accounts of murdering and
scalpi g. Our friends in Idho and Wash
ington Territory will do well to note the
fact that the-' disaffection among the Indi
ans is fearfully extendiug westward.
New Pai'Kiss. -We have received the
Urst copy of. a new paper printed by A.
Pettygrove & Co., at Port Townsend.
Alse, Uie Recorder, from Vallejo. Solano
county, California, by G. A. Poor &. Co.
Both are neatly printed, medium sized
journals. The Tlecorder shows symptoms
of a reaction ia favor of the propects of
Taliejo. We sec no cause why that point
should not be made the terminus of the
lac.dkllaHroad.--
The S-IIour. Movement. We are in
formed that there is not much vitality left
in the 8-Loar m verrient in Chicago. La
borers employed by the city who have
been working eight hours for eight hours
pay, have unanimously petitioned to be
allowed to work "ten hours for the old pay.
All now work under the old system.' A
few discontented strikers continue to hold
daily meetings, b it 'they exclude news
paper reporters. Inflammatory harangues
are made, and threats of violence are
frequent.
The Reign. of. Terror. The papers are
full of reports of crime, all over the coun
try, and each day's dispatches adds to the
long list of murders, suicides, arsons and
criminal assaults. This state of thiags is
not confined to the East. Owyhee has
lately been the scene of an attempted as
sassination A. P. Minear the victim. A
terrible tragedy occurred at Port Town
send also, recently, in which four men
were killed.
Novel Book.. C. - Godfrey Leland's
book, written upon the subject of the Union
Paci ie IlailroafI, is entirely new and !
rather novel. The author introduces a
(table of distances with a daring joke, sings
merry songs over such serious matters as
dollars, bonds, mortgages, tonnage, speed,
mileage, and monthly profits! Gives us
genial notes on geo.logy and a rollick
ing -page on surveying! Funny as it all
is. it is useful, and the information is solid.

Stcpjo. Some lew Democratic papers
Qieeta determined to maintain their char
acteristic and unmitigated stupidity. Their
conductors cannot see the difference be
tween breaking up a disreputable negro
dance house in Louisville, Kentucky, and
the passage of the Civil Rights Bill to pro
tect freed men in the South. Their bril
liant comprehension confounds a New Or
leans massacre, and an arrest of dissolute
rioters at the North, as being one and the
same thing. -
O
Hard Ur. The Democratic papers
(some of thorn) seem determined to drag
the order of Good Templars into politics.
They have little to do when they resort to
this system of electioneering, and must be
hard up for a topic. In his speech at Van
couver on Saturday last, Mr. Flanders al
luded to the statement of the Herald in
reference to his connection with the Good
Templars . as a matter exclusively person
al to himself, with which the public had
nothing to do. lie said it was nobody's
business but his own whether he was a
Good Templar or rioi. and h should there
fore decline any public explanation. He
did right.
. A Difference in Persons. When the
.bark Xahumkeag was wrecked at Drake's
Bay. on the 11th ult, a brave Italian fish
erman named Andrea ; Larco was Uie me
dium cf safe escape to all on board. T
perform this he stood exposed in the water
from a. m. until 9 i. m.. and .was almost
exhausted, but did not relax his exertions
until everything bad been accomplished.
He did not desire any recompense, but
we are informed that he did not receive
even the thanks of those he had been in
0Btrumental in saving. There is a trader
up on the north, coast, near Burrard's In
let, who ;has .saved .from perishing three
.different crew3. of wrecked vessels in five
years to our knowledge, yet ho has never

We copy an article, on the first page to
day, from the Alta. giving the views of
that paper, in a plain way, on the subject
of the checJc which it is said our home
manufactures have received. The real
cause is' winked -"at.-and the Alia goes stu
pidly at work to say that the causes
may be traced to the ''insane clamor
raised by prejudiced, ignorant parties
who have blindly disturbed the equilib
rium that must always be maintained be
tween capital and labor'
With some men. the ruling passion is
strongest in adverse cases. The Alta pre
viously states, in the article referred to.
that the moving cause for this disastrous
state of affairs, ' originated in the Eastern
States." That is a. more sensible view :
It undoubtedly had its origin there, and if
the Pacific coast manufacturers had had
their wits about them, and systematized
their prices to keep out importations for a
short time, we would never have felt the
symptoms of the Eastern depression here.
As it is, we believe the estimates of the
Alta to be greatly exaggerated. The im
portations amount to nothing near the fig
ures set by the '-Alta, and we challenge
them to show it. The prospects are briefly
cammed up. We shall have dull times in
this, and certain other branches of trade
so affected, for perhaps sixty or ninety
days. Many kinds of goods will be sold
below cost, but we will bet a new hat that
nobody will burst up in this State on ac
count of it.
The Albt make? use of pretty plain lan
guage to enforce attention to its conclu
sions respecting this matter. We shall not
be so harsh, and shall accuse no persons of
ignorance, except such as are themselves
willing to concede that the trouble might
have been avoided by a careful observ
ance of the Eastern markets, and by
properly managing our own.

Steamer Antelope. This steamer is
being pretty thoroughly overhauled at
Pacific street wharf, says the Bulletin.
It is rumored that she will soon ply upon
Oregon waters, where the Xeio World and
other California craft went some time ago.
The Antelope is still a good river boat , and
for fast traveling would put the best or

Paper Stock. The bark Xereid. for
New York from San Francisco, takes
among her items of freight a large amount
of paper stock in bales for the Eastern
manufacturers. " We send our paper stock
on a journey of 1 5.000 miles, and then buy
it back again in the shape of paper, with a
large '-'profit to the manufacturer.. We
shall do better than this some day.
The First " Proof."' The Denver Xeics

specting the first sheet from the newly in
vented printing press. It is a fine illus
tration of the infancy of an art which now

The Almighty Dollar. It will be re
membered that less than one year ago
landlords in the city of New York were
very exacting, and rents increased full 50
per cent, often 90 per cent, being asked.
Now many of those landlords go begging
for tenants at the old prices. Their greed
for the Almighty dollar, within reach, eo
to speak : " killed the gooe that laid the
golden egg."' Are there any in Oregon
whose short-sightedness has caused them
to act similarly ? We think we can count
a few.
Labor and Capital. The origia of the
struggles now going on in the Atlantic
States between labor and capital is par
tially exp'ained by a friend in St. Paul,
Minnesota, who writes us under date of
March 9th that printers' wages have been
reduced to 20 cents per thousand ems. (or
about $8.10 per week.) and that he has
paid SI 9.50 per barrel for flour io feed hi
family upon, besides an increase of 7 per
cent, rent for a dwelling house, over what
he paid when wages were 25 cents per
thousand ems.

The best brands of Oregon flour are
in demand in San Franeisco for shipmest
to New York. A large lot of Imperial
Extra was shipped via Cape Horn to New
York, on the clipper ships Mary E. Parker
and Seminole. There are no direct ship
ments from this place at present, owing
to the steamships being engaged for every
voyage up to September next. Oregon
flour is selling at the highest market
rates in San Francisco, and shippers are
satisfied as long as it thus continues.
A California gentleman, writing to a flour
manufacturing in this city, states that the
Californians interested in flour shipments
to New York complain that New York
ers do not know how to mix up their
flour, 'while the Oregon so closely rasem
bles the Genessee as to yield good re
turns to the manipulations of the simple
minded people who live in the great
metropolis. We wonder what reason our
neighbors will next advance for the fail

those of Oregon, says the Herald.
At a late meeting of wool growers in

iice of assorting our wools in San Fran
c' 0. and placing our floe wool to the
credit of California mixing the burry and
inferior wf.oi of that State with the
coarser grades of Oregon wool, and
marking It Oregon .wool.7' is downright
rascalit v. and deserves our censure. Such
practice is calculated to work us great
injury in the Eastern market.7' This is
not the first time that this downright
rascality" way the Californians -have of
treating Oregon wool, ha3 been public
lv mentioned, says the Oregonlan. That
the charge is true admits, perhaps, of
very positive proof. It is just of a piece
with the practice which succeeded for
years in keeping Oregon flour in a second
rate place in the market. No sooner,
however, did Oregon flour get into the
New York market, than California had to
take the second place. The dodge of
calling it all California flour did not
win. because Oregon merchants shipped
without the intervention of California
forwarders, and it went in the original
brands on them. The same course pur
sued Avith Oregon wool will straighten
out the kinks which have always here
tofore existed in the Pacific coast ship
ments of that article. Onr wool grow
ers should by ail means send their wool
direct, with the Oregon brand on it. In
this way only can we prevent California
from making a name and fame, at our
expense and with our products.
Focnd Gciltt. The trial of Fitzhugh

The Loyalist Protected. There is apt
to be a reverse of the decision of Judge

to indemnify fully the officers who made
such arrests ; which was approved March
2d. If tliis law bad been received at Saa
